>    Microwindows comes with two built in raster fonts. A rather
    frequent question to the mail list goes something like
    <I
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
>"I can only set two font
    sizes..."</I
>. To gain additional font styles and
    sizes you could compile additional raster fonts into
    Microwindows. There are some tools in the 
    <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>.../microwin/src/fonts/</TT
> 
    directory that can be used to create additional raster fonts for
    Microwindows.
    </P
><P
>    This section will not cover these raster font tools. Instead I
    will describe how to install and use TrueType fonts within
    Microwindows.
